Abstract

An assembly for the frame of a switchboard is disclosed, which can include a hollow member which extends lengthwise along a reference axis and which has at least one slot. The assembly can include at least one connecting element for connecting the assembly to a corresponding corner joint element of the frame, and the connecting element can include an insulating body and a fixing metal plate which is associated to a carrying part of the insulating body. The carrying part can be at least partially inserted transversally with respect to the reference axis into the hollow member through the slot, so as to arrange at least a portion of the associated fixing metal plate into the hollow member transversally with respect to the reference axis.

Description

RELATED APPLICATION(S)[0001]This application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §119 to European Patent Application No. 13173392.5 filed in Europe on Jun. 24, 2013, the entire content of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.FIELD[0002]The present disclosure relates to a frame assembly of a switchboard.BACKGROUND INFORMATION[0003]Known switchboards, such as a distribution or automation switchboard, include a frame which defines an internal space for housing one or more electric or electronic components and / or elements of the switchboard.[0004]For example, the frame of a low voltage distribution switchboard can house, for example, circuit breakers, bus bars, control buttons, cable conduits, supporting guides.[0005]The frame constitutes a structural skeleton to which various components and / or accessories of the switchboard, such as, for example, the supporting elements for its electric or electronics elements, cladding panels, the top cover, the base, the door can be ...
